She wasn't going to show them just yet, but she was curious as to what they thought could be done with the wax. "What do you think happens to the wax that would make it different for everyone to have a true reading? What type of reading do you feel it gives?"

"While you are answering these questions please take our your wand and fill your bowl with water. First years please ask an older student for help with this." She knew they would most likely not be sure of that spell just yet.

Milo studied his bowl with dismay. He didn't know how to fill it with water. The candle part he'd figured out readily enough; the wax would harden into different shapes in the coolness of the water. Whether or not those shapes would really mean anything was left to be seen, and the little first year was more than a little skeptical. But he still wanted to make a good impression.

As the older students began murmuring the incantation and filling their bowls with water, Milo glanced around the room quickly, trying not to look too desperate for help, but he'd never had much of a poker face. He was sure his wide eyes and slightly flushed face were definitely giving away his alarm at this task.
